Red dotted that because although there's material for a good joke there, you fucked it. For a start, wtf is a ventilation company? At a push they'd be installing air conditioning or windows with vents, but fans?  Must try harder.. 3/10

The best ever play on words of that nature came when Brian Clough punched a pitch invading supporter.

Some journalist described it as the definitive case of the shit hitting the fan.

What do you think accelerates the air round buildings, brings supply and extract air to air handling units or air conditioning units?

FANS.

FANS.

There is a lot of support for air conditioning companies, but the last 18 months have been tough. They have realised they are nothing without fans.

A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that the teller's name is Patricia Whack. So he says, "Ms. Whack, I'd like to get a loan to buy a boat and go on a long vacation."

Patti looks at the frog in disbelief and asks how much he wants to borrow.

The frog says $30,000.

The teller asks his name and the frog says that his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's OK, he knows the bank manager.

Patti explains that $30,000 is a substantial amount of money and that he will need to secure some collateral against the loan. She asks if he has anything he can use as collateral.

The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny pink porcelain elephant, about half an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.

Very confused, Patti explains that she'll have to consult with the manager and disappears into a back office.

She finds the manager and says "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000. He wants to use this as collateral." She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what the heck is this?"

The bank manager looks back at her and says: "It's a knick knack, Patti Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone"

Covid self -test.

Pour a measure of whisky, gin, or rum into a glass, then see if you can smell it. If you can, then drink it, and if you can taste it it is reasonable to assume that you are currently free of the virus.

I tested myself 9 times last night, and was virus free each time, thank goodness. 

I will test myself again today because I have developed a headache which I understand is also a Covid symptom.

Keep testing.
